  abstract = {{I}n 2000, {C}leide {C}osta published a paper presenting the state of knowledge of the {N}eotropical {C}oleopte ra, with a focus on the {B}razilian fauna. {T}wenty-four years later, thanks to the development of the {C}oleoptera section of the {T}axonomic {C}atalog of the {B}razilian {F}auna ({CTFB} - {C}atálogo {T}axon{\^o}mico da {F}auna do {B}rasil) through the collaboration of 100 coleopterists from all over the globe, we can build on {C}osta's work and present an updated overview of the state of knowledge of the beetles from {B}razil. {T}here are currently 35,699 species in 4,958 genera and 116 families known to occur in the country, including representatives of all extant suborders and superfamilies. {O}ur data show that the {B}razilian beetle fauna is the richest on the planet, concentrating 9% of the world species diversity, with some estimates accounting to up to 15% of the global total. {T}he most diverse family in numbers of genera is {C}erambycidae (1,056 genera), while in number of species it is {C}hrysomelidae (6,079 species). {C}onotrachelus {D}ejean, 1835 ({C}urculionidae) is the most species-rich genus, with 570 species. {T}he {F}rench entomologist {M}aurice {P}ic is the author who has contributed the most to the naming of species recorded from {B}razil, with 1,794 valid names in 36 families, whereas the {B}razilians {U}birajara {R}. {M}artins and {M}aria {H}elena {M}. {G}alileo are the only ones among the top-ten authors to have named species in the 21st century. {C}urrently, approximately 144 new species of {B}razilian beetles are described each year, and this average is projected to increase in the next decade to 180 species per year, or about one new {B}razilian beetle every two days.},
